3.     505K    for the rest of this manual  to clearly delineate it from the other 505U products     The 505K radio telemetry module is an economical solution for the remote monitoring of  process signals  The 505K can connect to digital  pulse or analogue signals from process  transducers  and transmit these signal values by radio     Although the 505K is intended to be simple in its application  it also provides many  sophisticated features  This manual should be read carefully to ensure that the modules are  configured and installed to give reliable performance  The 505K has been designed to use a  European licence free radio band at 869MHz  The 505K uses the 869MHz 105U module as a  receiver  or repeater  If you have not used 105U modules before  please read the 105U User  Manual prior to reading this manual     The 505K module is a monitoring only unit   that is  it will only accept input signals and  does not provide output signals  The 505K has an internal radio transmitter  it does not have  a receiver to receive messages from another module     The 505K transmits the value of an input signal whenever the signal changes  and also after a  pre configured time  Each transmission message includes error checking to confirm the  validity of the message  At each transmission  the 505K may be configured to repeat the  transmission several times to ensure that the transmission is received correctly  This is  important if the radio path is marginal  that is  the radio signal is n
4.     If the update time expires since the last transmission  then the last measured value will be  transmitted   that is  a new measurement will not be taken  Normally the update time will be  much longer than the sample time  If the update time is less than the sample time  then update  messages may transmit the same value as the previous transmission  as a new measurement  has not yet been taken     Overview   e Measurements of the analogue signal are determined by the sample time and warm up time    e Analogue value is transmitted if the measured value has increased by the configured  sensitivity amount since the last transmission    e Analogue value is transmitted if the input value has not been transmitted within the update  time  10 seconds     7 days     e There is no paralysis time for the analogue input     2 4 6 Setpoint Status    The setpoint status is an internal status value  calculated by comparing the analogue input to  two configurable setpoint values  The setpoint status turns ON when the analogue input  moves below the low setpoint value  and turns OFF when it moves above the high setpoint  value  The high setpoint percentage must always be greater than  or equal to  the low set  point     The internal setpoint status will be determined every time an analogue measurement is taken     The setpoint status is treated as a digital signal and its value is transmitted according to the  rules for a digital input     2 4 7 Supply Voltage    The 505K measures the supp
5.   A zero rate     steady level        will correspond to a 50   analogue signal  The analogue signal will be more than 50  if the level is increasing  and  less than 50  if the level is decreasing  If an incremental shaft encoder is used  then the rate  may be scaled by scaling PRATE1  Ifa quadrature encoder is used  scale PRATE2  The  scaling value will determine both the 100  analogue signal  e g  20mA  and 0  signal  e g   4mA   For example  if a maximum pulse rate of 10Hz is configured  then the analogue  signal will be     100  if the encoder increases at 10Hz 50  if the encoder pulse rate is 0  0  if the encoder decreases at 10Hz  75  if the encoder increases at 5Hz  25  if the encoder decreases at 5Hz    Note that this is only true if the pulse inputs are configured for a shaft encoder  If standard  pulse inputs are used  then 0  analogue signal will correspond to zero pulse rate  0Hz      The pulse rates are treated as analogue inputs and follow the rules for an analogue input as  described below     2 4 5 Analogue Inputs   The analogue input can measure from 0     24mA or 0     1OVDC  Current or voltage input can  be selected by an internal selector  refer Installation section of this manual   The mA input  can be used for conventional 4 20mA signals or 0 10mA or 0 20mA  The voltage input can  be used for 0 5 or 0 10VDC signals  The 505K unit is factory configured for a 4 20mA  signal  however the user can calibrate the unit for other ranges  The measurement resoluti

22. d incremental shaft encoders  A shaft encoder is a transducer that measures  level or displacement  and has two pulse signals to indicate change of level and direction of  change  Both pulse inputs are read at the same time  The divider parameter on PI2 must be  set to 1 for this application     If an incremental encoder is used  then the calculated count value is stored in PIl  Ifa  quadrature encoder is used  then the calculated count value is stored in PI2     The counter value  or    level position     can be manually set using the 905K diagnostics  features  refer section 5 of this manual   Initially the counter will need to be    zeroed    when  the shaft encoder is in the    zero level    position     2 4 4 Pulse Rates    The rate of each pulse count is calculated and can be transmitted as internal analogue inputs   The rate is calculated on the increase of the base counter  not the rate of the input pulses  The  maximum count rate which can be calculated is 1000Hz  For PII  this is the maximum pulse  rate that can be calculated  For PD  a divider can be used for pulse rates more than 1 KHz   The pulse rate values can be scaled   that is  the user can configure what pulse rate  0 1      1000Hz  corresponds to maximum analogue value  20mA   Each pulse rate can be scaled  individually  Note that this is separate to the divider on PI2 count     If the pulse inputs are configured for a shaft encoder  a pulse rate is still calculated    corresponding to rate change of level
23. e  For PD  there is a configurable scaling divider  integer 1      255   This allows the pulse count to be scaled  If a divider of X is configured  then the pulse  count will increase by 1 for each X input pulses  There is a separate divider for each pulse  input  The divider parameter could be used for the following reasons      gt  If the pulse count is to be transmitted to a pulse output on a 105U  then the maximum  pulse rate is 100Hz  If the input rate is more than 100Hz  then it can be reduced with the  divider  For example  if the maximum input rate is 300Hz  then the use of a 10 divider  will bring the effective rate down to 30Hz   each output pulse will then represent 10  input pulses      gt  The divider can be used to scale the pulse count to engineering units  For example  if the  input pulse rate is 7 pulses per m     of gas  then a divider of 7 will result in a pulse count  corresponding to the number of m    Note that the divider must be an integer      gt  The divider could be used to slow down the pulse rate  If the input pulse rate is 5KHz   then the base 16 bit counter will overflow in approx 13 seconds  If the overflow counter  is not used  then this may be too fast to be processed by HMI software  If a divider of  100 is used  then the counter will take over 20 minutes to overflow     There is no divider for PIL     If the pulse count is transmitted to a pulse output on a 105U module  the 105U will compare  the input count to its own output count  the cou
